Technical Working Group of the Education and Skills Data Space
We are witnessing records amount of cyberattacks. Cybersecurity will be key to ensure the trust framework we wants for the Dataspace of Education and Skills.
Cyberattacks are now carried out by professional hackers organised in gangs. There are several types of cyber attacks to consider:
- ransomware
- Log4j
- SolarWinds
- Malware
- Emotet
- denial of service (DoS)
- man-in-the-middle (MITM)
- Phishing
- SQL Injection
- Password Attacks
As some of the data exchanged within the dataspace may be personal data (eg learning traces), we will need to make sure those data are properly protected according to Art. 32 GDPR Security of processing. This article lists 4 actions:
- a) the pseudonymisation and encryption of personal data;
- b) the ability to ensure the ongoing confidentiality, integrity, availability and resilience of processing systems and services;
- c) the ability to restore the availability and access to personal data in a timely manner in the event of a physical or technical incident;
- d) a process for regularly testing, assessing and evaluating the effectiveness of technical and organisational measures for ensuring the security of the processing.
The questions we need to discuss are :
- What are the potential security issues associated to our dataspace?
- What barriers we can set up to avoid these issues?
- What are the priorities?
- What new or specific developments are required?
- How to fund these developments?

There is an upcoming funding call in France to develop new cyber security solutions: https://www.gouvernement.fr/investissements-d-avenir-le-gouvernement-lance-un-appel-a-projets-pour-soutenir-le-developpement-de
I think we could explore a few things such as:
- Service to assess the strength of anonymization / pseudonymization of learning traces dataset
- Service to assess the strength of anonymization / pseudonymization of skills profiles
- Security alert/notification system for DASES services
- Monitoring abnormal data flows to prevent DoS attacks
- Evaluation of the strength of identity wallets
- Maybe even security trainings / certifications needed for dataspace users
Very helpful article it is, you mentioned in detail about the protection of cyber attacks which helped alot to get useful information that how to protect myself from cyber attacks, also I had posted a blog on my site in which I had explained the purpose of cyber security and iot, I would prefer you to must give it a check and drop a feedback on it.
Thankyou for sharing these insights on cybersecurity, and its utility in strengthening security level in DASES. We are glad to be working in the similar ecosystem by the name of Cybalt, a US based cybersecurity entity that safeguards organizations against cyber threats.

Several critical security issues must be considered when implementing DASES (Distributed Autonomous Systems for Enhanced Security). With their autonomous and interconnected nature, DASES bring about unique security challenges that require special attention. Here are some of the critical security issues to consider:
Data Privacy: DASES involves collecting, storing, and processing vast data. Data privacy is crucial to protect sensitive information from unauthorized access or misuse. Implementing robust encryption, access controls, and data anonymization techniques can help mitigate privacy risks.
Network Security: DASES rely on interconnected devices and networks, which increase the potential attack surface. Securing the network infrastructure, including firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and robust network segmentation, is vital to prevent unauthorized access, data breaches, or disruptions.
Authentication and Access Control: As DASES in
We are witnessing a record number of cyber attacks (https://requisitos.es). Cybersecurity will be critical to ensure the trust framework we want for the Education and Skills Dataspace.
